At 1.46GHz I am pretty sure this is below the new test minimum (I will verify that tomorrow with MTU). Though yours is above the minimum requrements in the manual and on the webpage it is very close to it. This is why you are experiencing sync problems.
I would recommend though that you go to Dell Support webpage and get the driver and Bios updates for that laptop. Your Bios is listed as version A03 and I am sure there has been an update since then.

ok i updated the bios and it is better. the first song i played was perfect but the secdond and third were way off again. i tried to update the video driver as well and lost my second display so i rolled it back. got a show tomorrow so hopefully i can get this resolved.

have you tried changing the virtual memory setting, ( 3055/ 4096 )and the playback offset.? i change the playback to -.50 and it fixed the out of sync problem ,once you do these, specially the playback offset play a couple of songs, i have 2 songs that i used , which i think is perfect to see if it's still out of sync..1). Bye Bye Love and 2) was Amazed

I have changed the playback to -1.25 and it seems much better. How do I change the virtual memory? I'm not very savy at this stuff.

read thread " hoster shuts down after 35-40 sec." ( sept. 26 page 2 )post # 33 and just follow the direction..-1.25 ? have you tried -.50 and played the songs i suggested?

[alaskatazdvl]

I started on -.25 and had to keep adjusting to get my songs on track. I did not try the songs you suggested yet. but I will look at the thread you suggested.
